This was a reply to a couple questions posted prior to a discussion session.

An example where these factors come into play are accounting records and tax returns. A growing number of laws are attempting to address these issues relative to personal financial information. It’s looking like the entity responsible is the forward thinking accountant embracing the digital age.

As for balancing the interests at stake…that is a more difficult problem. If circumstances represent data and collections of these circumstances information, then continued analysis of this information affords a chance at knowledge from which balancing can follow. So the best way to balance the interests at stake is to pay attention to such matters (flow of information) and continue to study what has happened and the information you have (reuse).
